Main Targets and Points of Interests of Hydrogen Related Research in Poland:Fossil fuel based power plants as future energy and hydrogen producers the sustainable way - the Green Energy from Coal concept

Trans-border Czech - Slovak- Polish HyCom in Cieszyn/Tesin as an important tool for regional development - non fossil

Establishment of the International R&D Centre of Separation Technologies for Hydrogen Economy Needs - EU Marie Curie Transfer of Knowledge (TOK) Fund - Coke oven gas as separation model fluid - low cost nanostructured metals for hydrogen separation, cleaning up, and storage

Hydrogen as friendly (!), safe (!) and profitable (!) material and energy carrier

Hydrogen Production, Investment Costs

Coal is of great interest because it is: Plentiful. Resource ~ 500 years (vs. gas/oil: ~100 years). Inexpensive. 1-1.5 $/GJ HHV (vs. gas at 2.5+ $/GJ). Ubiquitous. Wide geographic distribution (vs. middle east). Clean?! Gasification, esp. with sequestration, produces little gaseous emissions and a chemically stable, vitreous ash.

FutureGen

USTDEV-1.2.7 - Capture and sequestration of CO2 associated with cleaner fossil fuel plants Global and EU energy supply will, for the foreseeable future (2015 - 2020), be dominated by fossil energy sources. However, their CO2 emissions are a major drawback in the context of global climate change. The challenge is therefore to be able to use these fossil fuels whilst eliminating CO2 through cost-effective capture and sequestration and at the same time maintaining EU industrial competitiveness in global markets. Targets: reduce the cost of CO2 capture from 50-60 to 20-30 per tonne of CO2 captured, whilst aiming at achieving capture rates above 90%, and assess the reliability and long term stability of sequestration.
